Oil pastel worK
Oil pastels are still my number one favorite medium, even though I also paint with acrylic and oil. When working with oil pastels I feel as if I am able to combine both painting and drawing qualities using just this one medium.
Oil pastels have a lovely creamy quality when applied to a surface, feeling (and looking) like crayon. They are made with wax and oil, so they always stay workable, but do dry enough to be stable, and stay on the surface fairly well.
There are different brands of oil pastels, and each one has a different quality of creaminess.
